Lyrics
Plant these feet where soil betrays
Relentless waves we tread
How long 'til no more hands outstretch
It's getting to my head
No one wants to die
They slumber for relief
The dreamless, wake-less night
Brings shallow sleep beneath
I bought an hour of elation
And window shopped blue skies
I counted my distractions
And kept on biding time
Patience wilting
Guilt denies my substance
No one wants to die
They slumber for relief
The dreamless, wake-less night
Brings shallow sleep beneath
Conscience escapes me
Cold to touch, but trust me
Perfect— embrace me
As flesh denies its hold
Patience wilting
Guilt expires my substance
Slowly drifting
In a sea of nothing
No one wants to die
They slumber for relief
The dreamless wake-less night
Brings shallow sleep beneath
